I guess bc he is THE BOSS at work he thinks he calls the shots everywhere...but guess what? I am not an employee...
The greatest disappointment in my life thus far is/will be that I could not give my children the chance to grow up in an intact, loving home with both parents. However that is beyond my ability to control. What I can control is my ability to show my kids a strong, loving, happy, playful, forgiving mom with strong character and integrity. So that is what I will do.
**I came to this conclusion in the shower. I was thinking about how athleticism is not my strength--I do better at individual things like dancing, running, biking, weights where I compete against myself and where I don't have to be coordinated with a ball! I can do golf ok, but again I am not passing the ball to someone or trying to hit a moving ball. Make sense?
Anyway I thought about what I have passed on to my kids since it is obviously not the athlete gene! And you know, my kids have a real sense of relationship with God. They know who Jesus is and what He did for us. They know what it means to be a good friend and that it is important to be honest and responsible. Nathan is an amazing reader and speller, just like me. The kids also have great senses of humor, like me. So if my legacy is smart, funny, faithful, honest kids, that works for me. Not that I won't encourage physical fitness. But I just have other priorities...
